Chapter 24

Valley of Exuni

“What a boring city. The Seaside Village is more of a city than this.” Said Chanyeol

“I can’t agree more.” Said Sunny

“This city on the Valley of Exuni is an old city. It looks boring but this is the center of culture and the arts. There are a lot of libraries…A lot of exhibits…a lot of markets…” said Master Cha

“Wow…for a scholar…this must be heaven.” Said Kris

“Yes it is.” Said Master Cha “Let's first look for a place to stay.”

“That’s always the first step when we reach a village.” Said Sunny as if giving instructions to the new comer Luhan. "We always first look for a place to stay."

They found a small Inn near the market. 

“A bit expensive.” said Sulli who is already now on her human form.

“Well everything here is a bit more expensive.” Said Master Cha

They went inside the room. 

Kris put some of his things down the bed. “Master Cha, can I ask for a few hours off to a library? I just want to check on something.”

“Hmm… all right. I’ll bring the others to start looking for the next member. But bring Sunny with you. It’s best if no one is alone.” Said Master Cha

“Why are we going to a library?” asked Sunny

“I just need to check on something that’s been bothering me since the other day.” Said Kris

“What is it?” asked Sunny

“I need to check on something on the history. I want to confirm something.” Said Kris

“Wow…are you a scholar?” asked Sunny

“I had 12 units of history.” Said Kris “It’s part of my preparation to be an Ace Knight.”

They entered a library. It was a big one. It is a circular structure. Inside…there are 5 stories full of shelves!

“Wow….This is huge” said Sunny “Where do we start?”

“Hmm…History would be there…it’s usually the highest shelves.” Said Kris

“But it’s thousands of books.” Said Sunny

“We need the one from a hundred years ago.” Said Kris

“Huh?” asked Sunny

“Remember what Lady Muklan said? She said she waited a hundred years.” said Kris “Black dragons were eliminated a hundred years ago. It might be for revenge… I want to know why she’s blocking us. I want to know what happened before the Black dragons were eliminated. Something tells me we need to understand her motive.”

Sunny is amazed at Kris’ intellect.  “I did not even pay attention to what she said.”                 

“She’s a threat to us. We should of course pay attention.” Said Kris

Kris took a ladder and climbed to look for a book on a higher shelf.

“This one is from 50 years ago. The one below is from 30 years ago….so the one we are looking for is..up there.” Said Kris

“That’s a high climb.” Said Sunny

“TOP’s sight still hasn’t come back yet. I think we already need a healer soon. Good thing Luhan stayed back with TOP.” Said Sulli
